Personal Impact

1-Day Course on How to Enhance Presence and Become Master of Communication

Fully Customisable Training Course Material: Description

“The man who has confidence in himself gains the confidence of others.”

Hasidic saying

In today’s competitive world, standing out requires strong personality, uniqueness and a level of impact above and beyond anything ordinary. Having a strong and positive presence can open up doors, get people to listen, pay attention, to buy, to commit and to support you which in turn can boost your confidence, increase your chances of success and prepare you to face new challenges.

Those with strong personalities are always remembered well by others. People go quiet and pay attention when such characters talk. They are almost automatically expected to take control, be in charge and lead others and their views and decisions are often respected. What makes these people different from the rest of us? Why is it that some people are listened to, respected and followed while others are ignored and lost in the background?

Having presence is all about being very good at two major areas; your internal view or attitude, also known as inner presence, and your external behaviour, how you present yourself, or outer impact.

This course focuses on these two areas. It all begins by stopping shyness and breaking through the various fears acquire through different stages of life. Numerous exercises and group activities provided in this course systematically approach various communication skills which allow delegates to examine their behaviour in different contexts and learn new skills.

The course is designed from the outset around the exercises which also encourage delegates to learn from each other. Smaller exercises help to build confidence while more real-life case studies and role plays allow delegates to implement what they have learned already and apply it in a real-time situation and further improve their impact skills.

The course contains various guidelines on improving casual conversations, making and delivering engaging stories, practicing small talk, presenting a pitch and similar topics which allows delegates to improve themselves on specific skills.

In this highly practical course delegates will learn:

The Philosophy Behind Personal Impact Training Course

Acquiring a high-impact personality requires practice. It is one thing to read a book about it and learn a few tips, it is another to go out there and apply the skills when interacting with others. A controlled environment such as a training course is an ideal setting to learn about personality and impact. Interactive exercises between delegates will allow them to easily use the techniques on each other and observe the results. The results can immediately boost their confidence, which in turn allows delegates to become bolder the next time and move forward to the subsequent level.

This concept sits at the heart of Personal Impact course design as exercises are systematically designed to encourage this kind of participation and steadily increase delegates’ confidence in themselves and their ability to present a better image.

A Companion Book for This Course

You can use the following companion book as part of your training resources. You can provide the self-study book yourself or refer the delegates to obtain and read it. You can ask them to go through the exercises in the book as an assignment. If you have a follow-on course you can encourage a discussion and highlight key points on what they learned from the book.
